## Summary
- Collapse `live_substream_{on,off,select}` into a unified
`substream_{on,off}` pair, symmetric with `call_{start,end}`.
- Rename the `camera` field on the former `live_substream_select` to
`stream` (it always was a stream ID).
- Add optional `camera` field to both new actions for targeting a
non-selected base camera.
- YAML configs are migrated automatically; URL bookmarks must be updated
by hand.
## Migration
### Cycling between camera and substream (toggle button)
Before:
```yaml
tap_action:
action: custom:advanced-camera-card-action
advanced_camera_card_action: live_substream_on
```
After:
```yaml
tap_action:
action: custom:advanced-camera-card-action
advanced_camera_card_action: substream_on
```
### Selecting a specific substream
Before:
```yaml
tap_action:
action: custom:advanced-camera-card-action
advanced_camera_card_action: live_substream_select
camera: camera.front_door_hd
```
After:
```yaml
tap_action:
action: custom:advanced-camera-card-action
advanced_camera_card_action: substream_on
stream: camera.front_door_hd
```
### Turning the substream off
Before:
```yaml
tap_action:
action: custom:advanced-camera-card-action
advanced_camera_card_action: live_substream_off
```
After:
```yaml
tap_action:
action: custom:advanced-camera-card-action
advanced_camera_card_action: substream_off
```
### URL querystrings (manual update required)
| Before | After |
| --- | --- |
|
`?advanced-camera-card-action.live_substream_select=camera.front_door_hd`
| `?advanced-camera-card-action.substream_on=camera.front_door_hd` |

BREAKING CHANGE:
The microphone condition previously bundled two unrelated signals —
whether a two-way-audio session was connected and whether the microphone
was muted. Connection state is now its own dedicated call condition, and
microphone is reserved purely for mute state. Configs are upgraded
automatically (the card rewrites affected conditions under overrides,
elements, and automations). If you maintain config by hand, convert as
follows:
If you only used connected:
# Before
```yaml
condition: microphone
connected: true
```
# After
```yaml
condition: call
call: true
```
If you used both connected and muted — they must be split into two
conditions, since they no longer live together:
# Before
```yaml
condition: microphone
connected: true
muted: false
```
# After
```yaml
condition: and
conditions:
- condition: call
call: true
- condition: microphone
muted: false
```
BREAKING CHANGE: The `screensaver` image mode now shows a random image
from [picsum.photos](picsum.photos) instead of the embedded default
image. If you previously set `image.mode: screensaver`, change it to
`image.mode: default` to restore the previous behavior.
Introduces a ProblemManager that detects and surfaces actionable issues
(stale config, legacy frigate-hass-card resources, slow/failed streams)
via status bar indicators and notification popups with fix actions.
- Add support for Frigate reviews / detections.
- Add support for GenAI metadata.
- Significant internal refactor to more flexible "UnifiedQuery" to allow
mixing cameras with simple metadata and review metadata (e.g. a timeline
view of a Frigate camera with reviews, and a Reolink camera with simple
metadata).
- Add support for folder media as camera media.
There are a few more PRs to commit prior to this going live, but
commiting this for now due to the scale of the change.
BREAKING CHANGE: `media_type` and `events_type` are retired under
`live`, `viewer` and `timeline` configuration sections, instead media
type is associated (once) with the camera under `media`.
Whilst the Frigate support in this card is the best among camera
engines, the name incorrectly suggests that Frigate is a requirement.
Instead, to broaden the appeal, change to more camera agnostic name.
This does not suggest any change in priority, role or support for
Frigate.
This change is likely to be bug prone, due to the size of the rename --
the code contains 1500+ references to "Frigate" most of which make sense
to rename, some which do not, all of which needed human assessment.
- Closes#1298
BREAKING CHANGE: References to `frigate-card` in all kinds of
configuration need to be updated to `advanced-camera-card`. An automated
config upgrade should take care of the majority of usecases (click `Edit
-> Upgrade -> Save`), though may not be perfect.
- Closes#1818
**Why add this?**: A repeated pattern is that an issue is fixed in the
card, a new build is released and users will incorrectly believe it's
not yet fixed due to their browser caching the old code. This results in
wasting their time, and my time.
**But it's obnoxious!**: I'm pretty sensitive to this (hence adding
these messages!), so let me know how terrible you find it. You can
disable it with:
```yaml
performance:
features:
card_loading_indicator: false
```
* fix: Replace `max_height` with `height`
BREAKING CHANGE: This entirely removes `min_height`, and replaces `max_height` with `height`. The behavior is obviously not exactly the same, but the prior behavior did not actually work correctly. CSS does not limit the height of child elements that are `100%` of their parents height if the parent does not have an explicit height set (this caused spillage over the set max height). As such, it's simpler to just allow the user to set the actual height of the card should they need to do so, with a (hopefully) minor loss of flexibility.
